Jimmy Choo is the most famous designer and famed for his handcrafted shoes.

Given data:

Leather and metals = $25/pairShoe-boxes = $1/pair Wage of shoemaker = $10/pairVariable pricing= $36/pairSelling price = $100.00Contribution = $64/pair

a. Option 4. None of the above

Per unit gross marketing contribution can be explained by:

Marketing cost per unit = $\dfrac{\$200,000}{100,000 \text{units}} = \$ 2$ Gross marketing contribution = $\dfrac{\$64}{\$2} \times 100\% = 3200\%$

b. Option 3. 1,172

Advertising & promotion: $200,000Executive Salaries = $300,000Total fixed costs = $500,000Net profit = $140,000

Fixed cost increased by $75,000 to $575,000

$\text{Sales unit to sell} & = \text{Fixed costs} +\dfrac{\text{profit}}{\text{contribution margin per unit}}$

$\text{Sales unit to sell} & = \text{\$575,000} +\dfrac{\text{140,000}}{\text{\$ 64}}$

= 1,172 units

c. Option 4. None of the above

Change in sales can be estimated by:

Change = 1,172 - 1,000 = 172

$\text{Percentage change} = \dfrac{172}{1,000 } \times 100 = 17.2 \; \%$

Jimmy Choo

a. 4. None of the above

b. 3. 1,172

c. 4. None of the above

Explanation:

1) Data and Calculations:

Leather and metals: $25/pair

Shoe boxes: $1/pair

Shoemaker wages: $10/pair

Variable costs = $36/pair

Selling price to boutique: $100.00

Contribution = $64/pair

2) Fixed Costs and Profit:

Advertising & promotion: $200,000

Executive Salaries $300,000

Total fixed costs = $500,000

Net profit = $140,000

3) Per unit gross marketing contribution:

Marketing cost per unit = $2 ($200,000/100,000 units)

Gross marketing contribution = $64/$2 = 3200%

4) Increase fixed costs by $75,000 to $575,000

Sales unit to sell = Fixed costs + profit/contribution margin per unit

= $575,000 + 140,000 /$64

= 1,172

5) Change in sales:

Change = 1,172 - 1,000 = 172

Percentage change = 172/1,000 x 100 = 17.2%
